Summertime Guest

Since summer began we have had guests coming and going every week. We have cleaned for guest to arrive and then clean when they leave before the next group pulls in…which is difficult with a 20 month old. I am seriously thinking about turning our house into a bed and breakfast. Before we had our son we lived at the beach and no one ever came to visit, maybe two people a year. But now we live in the middle of nowhere and I mean nowhere and we never have a weekend to ourselves. We have nieces and little sisters coming for summer vacation, parents and siblings visiting, friends wanting a break from the big city or just to hang out. All of this entertaining is really beginning to drain me. We have purchased enough food in the past two months to feed an army and the troops are still piling in. I love having guests but it seems this summer we are getting bombarded with company. Neither my husband nor I are from Atlanta so most of our friends and family have to travel to come see us and now that we have a son everyone wants to come and spend time spoiling him. Wednesday morning I dropped off my sister-in-law after a two week visit.  Now it’s Friday and I am off to the airport to pick up the next arrivals. Who will leave on Monday and guess what we are doing on Tuesday….Yes, you guessed it, cleaning for the next group of friends stopping by on their way home from the Little League Baseball World Serious sometime next week depending on how long their sons winning streak lasts. And I would say after that we are done but no then my mother-in-law and her daughter are coming in August for two weeks.
